Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

The login system is network required. And must have at least an initial connection to the server to access items.
The becomes problematic for offline scoring as devices need to be preset with login details and such.

Describe the solution you'd like

The Login system should allow offline abilities, i.e Enter event code and Select the type of user you are (Team/Judge/Referee) which will give them access to the items on the device. And using the event code like a password (or by using an actual username/password) on next connection will sync data.

Color coded banner might be good for this to quickly see the state of the device, (Never connected to server, has connected once, is connected) as there may be some unforeseen bugs with states of the app where it's not connected but might have synced it's data previously to the server.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Always connected/cloud variations.
While useful and an easy method to fix this type of issue, the goal of TMS is to avoid needing internet connections for this specific reason. And having an app in the judging room that scores a team, without needing internet or any connection can help. And then in deliberations sync that to the server on network connection.

The obvious ideal is that there should always be internet/network access. But it may never happen and we need to account for this.
